Lovely work. Congrats to all the authors!
This is really beautiful work by PhD student Alexandre Porcher Fernandes (@alefern.bsky.social) on the evolution of reproductive strategies. I'm really keen to see where we can take this framework next!
Description of the type specimen of Cheirodopsis geikiei, a Carboniferous ray-finned fish, calling it "Imperfect fish, wanting paired and caudal fins"
Calling myself an imperfect fish from now on....
Happy to share this work from Carlos Camacho de la Maccora that reveals how rates of posterior progenitor addition and anterior vacuolation are balanced across the notochord. With Alberto Ceccarelli and @osvaldo-chara.bsky.social we present a model of long-range communication to provide robustness.
You lot are the best!!! ❤️
